WOLVES VS WATFORD: PREVIEW

Wolves will be looking to maintain their fantastic run of form as they host a rather out-of-sorts Watford side at Molineux on Saturday.

Nuno Espirito Santo's efforts with his Wolves side at the start of the season, have not gone unnoticed with the manager receiving the Manager of the Month award for September.

Wolves are unbeaten in their last six games in all competitions and will be looking to make it three Premier League wins in a row on Saturday afternoon.

However, Watford are winless for five games, with their last victory coming over Tottenham in August following their really impressive start to the season.

Watford would have definitely taken the ninth position they currently occupy at the start of the season, though - and with the talent they have in their squad, a win on Saturday could galvanise their season again.

Wolves sit two places above the Hornets in seventh and there's even been talk of a European finish for Wanderers.

TEAM NEWS:

Wolves' line-up can be more or less predicted with Nuno choosing the same team for their first eight games of the campaign.

It seems that their squad came through the international break unscathed and it looks likely the same team will be fielded.

For the visitors, Daryl Janmaat is still a long-term absentee, so Kiko Femenia is expected to replace the Dutch full-back.

Christian Kabasele is suspended for the trip to Wolves after his red card he picked up against Bournemouth before the international break.

Sebastian Prodl is expected to come into the side for the Belgian defender.

MANAGERS COMMENTS:

Watford boss Javi Gracia's press conference was largely dominated by speculation over a new contract for the Spanish manager.

Gracia, who has impressed in his short stint as Watford boss, said that he would be delighted if he signed a new deal at Vicarage Road.

"I feel very happy here," Gracia said to the media. "I feel the love by the supporters and by the club.

"In football, you never know what happens in the next two weeks, but I prefer to focus on the next game, to do my job, to do my best, so we'll see."

Gracia's managerial spells have all been short, but the Watford boss sees his current job as a long-term one.

"I'll like to be here more time because I am very settled here," Gracia continued. "I see my long-term future here and I can fulfil my ambitions at the club. We are talking and talks are going well."

BETTING ODDS:

The odds favour the in-form Wolves side going into the clash at Molineux.

Wolves can be found at 3/4 on Bet 365, with an away win at 17/4 - taking into account their bad run of form.

For the points to be split in this one, 11/4.

PREDICTION:

I believe Wolves have shown their true quality throughout their campaign so far and they'll have too much quality for the Hornets.

I'm going for a 3-0 home win for Nuno's men.

Wolves 3-0 Watford
